This is a story of one man's 28 year journey to own a Porsche 930. Jim Goodlett's 1984 grey market 930 Turbo is a beautiful example of a classic Porsche 911, but it also represents the accomplishment of a goal he set for himself as a young man who could only dream of one day owning this supercar.

Many thanks to Jim Goodlett for sharing his time and his story.

Keep up with Cars I See at facebook.com/CarsISee for behind the scenes and a look at what I'm working on next!

This is the third episode in a series I'm working on about cool cars and the stories behind them. I'm currently working on more episodes and am looking for any interesting car stories. If you have one, I'd love to hear about it! You can contact me by email at frazer@frazerspowart.net.

If you like Cars I See and would like to see more, please leave me a tip! All of my tips will go directly into producing more episodes. Thank you.

Music: Explosions in the Sky - From West Texas and Caspian - Asa.
